Hey just wanted to say hi 😊
So Lauren here! I'm new to the community and have only recently come to terms with the fact that I'm transgender to the point that I'm in the very early stages of starting my transition (i.e. speaking to a therapist, experimenting with clothing, etc) in fact even the name Lauren is a new change I'm trying with a small (but expanding 😊) circle of friends that I've come out to.
I'm from a relatively small rural town in Wales, UK and I don't know any other trans people at all so I thought online would be a good place to make some friends in the community who may hopefully be able to offer some advice/words of encouragement from time to time.  :)

But yeah a little about me :) I'm 27, love to ski and snowboard when I'm not chilling with a book or painting/drawing (badly 😶) and......yeah haha if anyone would like to say hi then feel free :) looking forward to getting to know you all!

Peace and much love 💙💚💛❤

I'm pretty new here myself, and I'm glad you are such a 'thriving' lady!

Hi Liz K and Devlyn!

Always a happy to see some else thriving haha 😄 I'm actually in love with the name Devlyn btw, it's so cool!

So happy you got a little taste of Wales Liz 😊 I'd definitely recommend visiting to anyone who likes hikes in the rain and hard to follow television 😁😆 I'd much rather be living somewhere exciting like Australia tho! 😊 I've never been however I'm moving to New Zealand in a few months so will hopefully get a chance to hop on over while I'm there 😁

Hugs all round xx

There's definitely a lot to see :) I'm sure you'll both have a wonderful time exploring 😊😊 x

I arrived September 20th. The London'y tourist stuff is out of the way, the Bedfordshire Clanger is out of the way, the Cornish pasty and Kendal mint cake are out of the way, I'm doing well!  :laugh:

Oh, and crumpets with Marmite!

Lauren-Is-Thriving

The Bedforshire clanger eh 😅 I don't think i know that one it sounds interesting tho!
Sounds like you're going full British! 😆

You actually arrived in the country 7 days before me, I just got back from living in Canada so I'm still feeling like a tourist here myself haha!
